So I went to simtropolis and guess what I stumbled upon?

For a moment there, I was shocked. Took me a while to process it was a joke :D.
BTW, Quezon, Nueva Ecija, Philippines doesn't exist since Quezon and Nueva Ecija are two different provinces in my country :).
Has anyone gotten a similar message? If you have, you gotta show it to us ;D.
Ha, very funny.

And yet the party will be at my house this weekend.....House Warming Party for my new house.
Robin :thumbsup:
Heh, and I thought the party was at London, London, England... I had the booze booked and everything... guess I'll just drink it all myself.

I got two different messages. The first said it was in Den Haag, Zuid-Holland, the Netherlands, and the second said it was in Koudekerk Aan Den Rijn, Zuid-Holland, the Netherlands (it doesn't even fit on the screen, LOL!)
And I thought,

But if Robin your still having the party at your place I think I could let ST know to send the masses your way lol!!
heheheeh Congrats buddie for your new place!!!
Hey Pat, how come you live Tomahawk and I live in Rhinelander? ()what() I mean really, if they're going to do and April Fools joke, they ought to at least get your place of residence right, don't ya think?
Hmm... apparently I live in Vallejo now (which happens to be about 60 miles away from where I thought I lived!) What's even funnier is that the contact information is still my old work email back in Michigan. :D
Maybe I should update that stuff... &Thk/(
I live in London in the country of London ()stsfd()

So London finally broke away from England eh? :D I tell ya, just can't get reliable news over here on this side of the pond.
thank god that its an april fool!
The city/state/country names come from the IP address you have, and who owns it and where. I've been in Michigan and had sites think I was in California because the IP address I had used to be owned by a company in San José.
TEG
The site was wrong with me too :D

And Tychy aren't in Katowice, they are separate city :P
Oh, and nobody from my friends living in Kraków too, had Kraków written :D
Apparently I'm the one hosting the party ::)

but at least I am moving to an snooty area, should help a bit with the street cred ::)
Note to self: Get in more supplies of Tea

Interesting. My prank is in the right city, but not the right ZIP code (90049 instead of my actual 90024). I guess I have some explaining to do to the rest of my fraternity... :D
I first heard about it by way of ST Chat. My bookmark link goes straight to the STEX and my computer automatically logs me in so i rarely see the homepage unless there's something interesting to look at:

Actually I live in Roanoke, 40 miles east of Blacksburg. I used to live in Blacksburg, yes, but I moved here in 2002 - I guess my IP address must be based in B'Burg...
Damn, tarkus! I thought forty miles was bad... $%Grinno$%
Hey my location was actually correct:

On top of that, it looks like Creamer from Seinfeld has joined the RHW team! :P
My location was ever so slightly off ;)

Nerdly Dood: Yep i blacked out the email address (because its one I don't use for SC4 stuff), but I didn't touch the rest. :)
Jonathan
I'm guessing that you blacked out your email address yourself?

Hollly crap there Alex daaaaaang only 5k off lol and here I thought about 20 miles off was funnie but no you take the cake sire!!!!
My location was off, but only by 9 blocks.
I have to say Tarkus, having the most way-off distance from your home, the jokes on you lol :D. Well, the prank is finally over and the site is back to normal. Looks like the party ended before it even began :P.
Remember April Fools in Simtrop last year. It was some serious joke that really got me fooled $%Grinno$%. This year, Simtrop's April Fools is a more subtle. Look what they did.

Anyway, April Fools y'all ;D.
Happy April Fools Day! I remembered what Simtropolis did last year for their AFD celebration, so I just had to visit their site today. I kinda realized though that the numbers on the dashboard change everytime you reload the page. ;)
